The sky was dark, without any stars. The only source of light was the moon. Its frosty brilliance was pouring down on the city, outlining many huge shadows that were roaming, trampling, and roaring throughout the city...
A bright light suddenly rose from the clock tower like a towering pillar connecting the night sky and the city. It split into several light arcs, encapsulating the city like the light of the Heavens!
It was the Barrier!
It was the lifeline that humans had relied on the most since the era of magic began. It had guaranteed the safety of cities, which allowed the humans to endure. With it, they no longer had to compete with demon creatures for land and resources.
The faint brown-yellow Barrier looked like the light of paradise when it was finally activated. It stood firmly above the city. The Mud Morphing Monsters and Rock Monsters that were flowing into the city were imdiately blocked from it by a strong repulsive force.
The scariest things about the demon creatures were their numbers and how they were able to keep showing up. It was not like the Mages were not able to kill the demon creatures, but they were eventually going to lose the will to fight against their endless numbers.
“If only the Barrier had gone up an hour earlier. It would have reduced these creatures’ numbers by half, even if it was only an hour difference. The whole city is full of Rock Monsters. Us soldiers might join them at any second. How long do we have to fight to eliminate them all?” a captain sighed.
The commanding officers and the authorities of the Magic Association had all gathered in the clock tower. They had witnessed the establishnt of the Barrier’s sacred light and its strength, but the difference in numbers between them and the Rock Monsters was just too huge!
The Barrier was indeed able to hold off the demon creatures, but the Mages still needed to drive out the demon creatures that had already invaded the city. The problem was exactly what Mo Fan had predicted in the first place. The huge flas had already reached the walls. It was too late to put them out!
“I won’t let these disgusting monsters get their way. All Brown Earth Mages, co with and eliminate these demon creatures to return peace to the city!” Lu Bin yelled.
The average strength of the Brown Earth Mages was the Advanced Level. Since the Barrier had been established, the Seal on other Elents had been lifted, too. Now that these Mages had reclaid the energy of the other two Elents, how could they possibly admit defeat so easily?
Lu Bin led the Brown Earth Mages and jumped out of the clock tower to go after the Granite Beasts surrounding the building. The Rock Generals and the Granite Beasts were currently the biggest threats to the city, since they could easily crush a whole group of Mages on their own and give the Mages in the city a huge blow to morale.
Lu Bin had to eliminate the demon creatures to help everyone regain their morale. He had to fight and convince everyone to fight the Rock Monsters with everything they had. It was the only way to save the city!
“Working as one!”
“Working as one!”
The Brown Earth Mages devoted themselves to be the vanguards, since they were the most respected Mages in the city.
“That’s right, we will work as one. We have held on for so long. It might be a long night, but dawn is just ahead. We will surely overco this difficult situation by working together. The whole country will be proud of warriors like us!” the commander-in-chief Xie Qinghua declared.
Xie Qinghua had a dozen generals and captains with her. They began to shout their determination while leading their n to carry out counterattacks.
The defensive war had ended. It was ti for them to eliminate the Mud Morphing Monsters and Rock Monsters in the city, returning peace to it and transforming it into a real Elental Capital. Otherwise, the city would only end up as a city of monsters. The hope and efforts of so many people would have been in vain.
They were resisting the invasion of darkness for the first half of the night. It was ti for them to fight for the daybreak in the second half!
As matters stood, Mo Fan could no longer judge if the authorities had made the right decision. He was quite touched by their determination. The situation in the Ancient Capital was a hundred tis worse when the Dark Abyss was approaching the inner city, yet the people’s determination allowed them to fight for the dawn.
The city had not lost hope yet. As long as soone was still fighting back, they had not lost the fight to build the Elental Capital!
“The people will easily lose determination from their fear of the enormous Black-Silver Rock Demons. I shall help them preserve their determination a little longer. Let’s hope there’s a miracle. Co, we’ll start with the Black-Silver Rock Demon that just evolved!” Mo Fan told Wen Xia.
“Wait, if you’re seriously doing this, I will bring my n along too! They are all Advanced Mages,” Wen Xia said.
“Sure, having a few more n as bait might save us ti,” Mo Fan agreed.
“They are fighting too!” Wen Xia protested.

Wen Xia had her own squad. The rest of the army was taking orders from Xie Qinghua.
The squad had five mbers in total who had reached the peak Advanced Level. Deputy Lieutenant Hou imdiately asked when they followed Wen Xia to a street in complete disorder, “Captain, are we a special squad entrusted with the mission to eliminate the Black-Silver Rock Demons? Is this a special order from the commander-in-chief?”
“More like the suicide squad,” Vice Captain Jin said.
“So what if we are the suicide squad? If we succeed, the city will record our nas in its history. I’ve had enough looking after the miners and driving away weak demon creatures every day. I finally have a chance to make a huge contribution, HAHAHA...”
Among the five mbers, four of them were n with rough features. Only one was a quiet Battlemaga. She was petite and skinny with an ordinary face. If she was not wearing a military coat, it would be hard to imagine she was a lieutenant. It seed her rank was the highest among Wen Xia’s subordinates.
“It’s my own decision. The five of you and I will be giving him full support to kill the Black-Silver Rock Demons!” Wen Xia pointed at Mo Fan who was leading the way.
“What? We are assisting that kid?”
“Madam, I would have thought he was just a scout if you didn’t say so, the kind that would flee for his life instantly as soon as a battle broke out!” Deputy Lieutenant Hou burst out laughing.
The others were amused too. The guy was obviously a student who ca to the city for training. He was obviously a burden to the team. Why would they be assisting him instead? Were they really going to let such a weak student Mage take on the brutal Black-Silver Rock Demons?
